The Undiscovered Tour

The Undiscovered Tour announces a Northern California Stop on January 24, 2013 in Oakland, Ca. The Undiscovered is a Nation-Wide Showcase Tour created and produced by Sellassie and Inhouse Talent in San Francisco, CA. The Undiscovered Tour is designed to market, promote and expose a facet in Hip Hop that is often taken for granted, The Upcoming, Independent Emcee the Future of Hip Hop. Contrary to the notions that "Hip Hop is dead" and totally fallen victim to swag, violence, money and negativity, The Undiscovered will prove otherwise.

The Undiscovered Tour is building a genuine network of Independent Rap Entrepreneurs, encourages artists to listen to each other's music and provides a priceless opportunity, a platform to be seen and heard in front of new audiences. The Undiscovered and sister series 2Racks Rap Contest and We All We Got have produced over 200 successful shows in its first few years and partnered nationally with Reverb Nation, Fusicology, the Hip Hop Congress and several local and regional promo companies, radio stations, studios and organizations. The series have booked over 1000 talented and emerging hip hop artists from across the country that have performed in front of industry professional and celebrity judges ranging from music supervisors, radio station music directors, on-air personalities, producers and artists. The Undiscovered Tour is Independent Hip Hop, it invests in artists on the rise and respects and contributes to the Culture of Hip Hop.
